    I never off it. Just restart once in a while. I never off it when I'm away from home either. This is the best time to download TV series or really huge files.

    My house is kinda crappy, so if we run too many things at once it blows a fuse in the circuit. Plus my dad thinks it's a waste leaving the pc on plus if I was gonna download something huge my connection speeed would be too slow.

    it uses less electricity leaving it on in standby that turning it off as power still drains when turned off.
    It doesnt reduce the pcs life leaving it on.
